Additional Information Sheet
G277/577 Quick Reference Guide
Notice on the use of the handsets
Like all cordless telephones, the G277/577 DECT handset uses
radio signals, which do not guarantee a connection under all
circumstances. Do not rely exclusively on the DECT handsets
when making indispensable calls (such as medical emergencies).
SOS functions
The SOS functions of the G577 do not replace companion
supervision by a colleague or other people. In case of critical,
emergency or life-threatening situations make sure that other
persons are present or that appropriate measures are taken.
Introduction
11
Getting started
Getting started
Installing the battery pack
1. Place the handset face down on a flat surface.
2. Slide the lock at the bottom of the battery
compartment cover upwards and at the same time lift
the cover away from the handset.
3. Remove the battery compartment cover.
4. Push the battery pack into the casing.
5. Replace the battery cover.
Installing the charger
1. Place the charger on a flat surface.
2. Connect the USB-C connector of the USB cable to (the
back of) the charger.
3. Connect the type A USB connector to the USB AC/DC
Adapter.
4. Connect the adapter to an electrical outlet.
5. Place the handset on the charger as shown in Figure 1.

Figure 2: Battery charging display
Charging a spare battery
The G277/577 Spare Battery Desktop Charger can be used to
charge a spare battery pack for the G277/577. To charge a spare
battery pack:
1. Place the spare battery pack in the spare battery charging
slot compartment. (Upside down and with text on the
battery pack f a c i n g to the front.)
2. Slide the spare battery pack under the plastic holder to
keep it in place.
Charging guidelines
Please read the concerning section in the DECT Handsets –
General Information Guide carefully!
Charging and operating times
Discharged batteries require 7 hours (using the spare battery slot
might take longer) to completely recharge. Completely charged
batteries provide the handset with up to 20 hours of talk time and
160 hours of standby time.
Attention: The handset, if switched off, automatically switches on
when placed in the charger.
